How to Manage an Unannounced DEA Inspection

Is your facility ready for an unannounced Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) inspection?

The thought of any audit makes many people nervous. When it comes to audits, a DEA inspection may sound worse than death or taxes, but is it really? In this week’s client newsletter, we discuss the steps facilities should take to enhance compliance and make the DEA visit quick and painless.

DEA facility inspections are occurring with greater frequency. Having your documents properly stored and labeled will help with a smooth visit and full compliance with federal controlled substance requirements.

In this week’s client newsletter, we discuss what to expect from a DEA inspection, as well as provide guidance on documents to have ready and discuss the risks of non-compliance.
